Using Campbell AVW2xx Vibrating Wire Interfaces – MultiLogger Application Note #21 – Page 10 of 13
Wired Configuration – AVW200 with Multiplexers (up to 2)
The following configuration depicts an AVW200 connected directly to the CR800 or CR1000, with gages
connected to multiplexers controlled by the AVW200.
Note: You will need to configure the AVW2xx for which type of multiplexer is connected. See the
introductory section for information on using Campbells Device Configuration software to do this.
Each multiplexer would be configured separately in MultiLogger. When configuring the multiplexers use
the Multiplexer Model AVW2xx. Configure the Channels to match the multiplexer configuration. Up to 16
vibrating wire gages with temperature can be read, or 32 channels without temperature.
Use the following Gage Type | Make | Model selections for the Multiplexer 1 Channel Configuration:
Vibrating Wire AVW2xx COM1 PB200 CH1 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH1 connected to Com1 Digits
COM2 PB200 CH1 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH1 connected to Com2 Digits
COM3 PB200 CH1 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH1 connected to Com3 Digits
COM4 PB200 CH1 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH1 connected to Com4 Digits
Use the following Gage Type | Make | Model selections for the Multiplexer 2 Channel Configuration:
Vibrating Wire AVW2xx COM1 PB200 CH2 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH2 connected to Com1 Digits
COM2 PB200 CH2 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH2 connected to Com2 Digits
COM3 PB200 CH2 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH2 connected to Com3 Digits
COM4 PB200 CH2 Digits PakBus ID 200 CH2 connected to Com4 Digits
Note: These gage types all use 12 volt excitation which should be appropriate for most gages.
Contact Canary Systems if you experience unexplained measurement instability.
